DeSantis for the win

Your profile says you joined the ET community May 12th 2021. Were you just lurking in the shadows all those years?
Your profile says you’re a recovering drunk, living in bumfuck, so you won’t relapse and get Covid. How’s the Bible thumping working for you and your man friend Traderob?
 
That was funny - the AP was crying because she called them out on lies.

Post more, these are a riot!

Actually what AP reported was strictly factual -- but this is not what the issue is about.

The issue here is her behavior... Is the following appropriate behavior for the spokesperson of a governor.

“Using her Twitter account, Christina Pushaw threatened a journalist, retweeted other threats against that journalist and issued a call to action against The Associated Press. This is unacceptable behavior from a government employee,” Veerasingham writes. “This type of harassing behavior can cause great harm.”
 
Now some new merchandise from the clown who pushed "Don't Fauci up my Florida" goods.

Got balls? Ron DeSantis has new edgy merch

As golf balls, they're not all that big.

Florida’s Governor has a pair.

That’s the slogan emblazoned on new merchandise — golf balls — that debuted Wednesday as the Legislature made a decisive drive toward passing legislation Gov. Ron DeSantis called for to fortify Florida against those pesky federal vaccine mandates.

“Hold the line,” says the box, under the line about the Governor having a pair.

Even if the line isn’t isn’t specified on the new merchandise, there’s plenty of double entendre.

Allusions to anatomy abound.

“Standing firm and setting an example for the rest of the nation in defending freedom as it comes under assault has become par for the course with Governor DeSantis,” reads an email making the rounds with the advertisement to his store.

What materials these balls are made of, it doesn’t say. It does say that they are TaylorMade TP5X Golf Balls with a DeSantis logo.

A 22-second video on Twitter has the DeSantis-marked ball getting airborne to rocking music.

“Leadership in Democrat states is weak,” the video declares as the shot gets lined up and a golf club swings.

It goes airborne to more words: “But not in Florida …”

This isn’t the first time DeSantis’ fundraising has used some edgy merchandise. A beer koozie offered for sale in July leaned into scorn that Dr. Anthony Fauci was prescribing masks to save lives.

“How can I drink a beer with a mask on?” DeSantis is quoted as saying on the koozie.

But then the delta variant hit, prompting Sen. Annette Taddeo, now running for Governor, to become one of a number who skewered DeSantis regularly for his insensitivity to the ongoing crisis. She tweeted almost daily about the count of days since he started selling anti-Fauci gear along with the number of Floridians who have died from COVID-19.

She got up to 94 days and 57,700 Floridians dead from the virus.

The koozies are gone from the Ron DeSantis store. These balls are also “Limited Edition: Fortified in Florida.”

Stop it Chris. You’ve been posting that type of nonsense for years on California. It’s like you have selective memory or you have zero self awareness. It’s befuddling to comprehend that you’re a CFO of a legit company.

Ahhh...you're RRY come back again! Now I get it. Thanks, Frank. I appreciate your commitment to coming back again and again after being banned. That's admirable!
 
Maybe he is so entralled with tsing tao that he spent a few days reading his past posts.

It's most likely RRY. He's been obsessed with me for years. Same "I'm always on the rag" posting style as well. Too bad he keeps getting banned, he's actually quite entertaining.

Nothing that the AP posted was factual. And she called then on it and they whined. Frankly, I rather enjoyed it.
 
She can try to walk back her antisemitic nonsense -- but it is way too late.

What is it "too late" for? The only people who believe this silly nonsense you post wouldn't care no matter what she said, as long as they can pretend it meant something bad.

And the people who see nothing wrong (most of the folks) don't give a shit what you or the "dailybeast" think. So I ask - what is it "too late" for?

1) "Calling out" involves disputing the reporting and providing factual evidence to refute it.

2) "Calling out" does not involve calling out the reporter, demanding they be fired, demanding an internet mob "drag them" while doxing their home address.

Christina Pushaw did number 2 above.
